Rams added DT depth signing Carlos Watkins, 6'3, 305lb who last played for Cards. Was drafted in 2017 out of Clemson by Texans.

Much needed depth up the middle, another 300+ NT with Brown and Davis.

Good cheap Veteran addition.

McSnead obviously thinks we are a little thin on the Dline, which makes me miss AD even more... C'mon Aaron, two more years is all we ask....

Was in another thread somewhere, they picked him up due to Desjuan Johnson's injury as he was seen in a walking boot unfortunately. Depth/insurance piece it looks like. Might make the 53 depending on how many tackles we keep.

Well - I’ll make my point later,but YES it shows.
It’s why The Rams wanted to draft,
that TEXAS DT instead of Jared Verse!! Murch just got hurt & Bobby Brown can’t be TRUSTED!!
I like me some BB95,but besides him there isn’t much BEEF.Davies & Fiske aren’t that big.

The Rams are down both Murchison and Johnson so it was good to bring in some insurance. In one of his press conferences, McVay even mentioned that the loss of Murchison precipitated this so if Murchison and Johnson were healthy I do not think they would have brought in Watkins. I like the Rams DT depth. In fact I think they will proabaly have a few hard cuts to make ad DT.

I think Durden, Murchison, Davis, and Johnson all showed well gainst Dallas in the preseason.

The guy from Texas wasn't big either...more of a quick penetrating type DT.
